How does `v-for` work and what are its best practices?

beginner
← All Vue.js questions
Re-explain

v-for renders lists of elements based on source data:

<!-- Array iteration -->
<li v-for="item in items" :key="item.id">{{ item.name }}</li>
<!-- Object iteration -->
<li v-for="(value, key) in object" :key="key">{{ key }}: {{ value }}</li>
<!-- Number iteration -->
<span v-for="n in 10" :key="n">{{ n }}</span>

Best practices:

  • Always use :key with unique, stable identifiers
  • Avoid using index as key when list can change
  • Don't use v-for and v-if on the same element
